US EditionHundreds March in London Against UK Recognising a Palestinian State
CENTRAL LONDON, AUG 10 – The march demands the UK government prioritize the release of 50 Israeli hostages held by Hamas before recognizing a Palestinian state, highlighting urgent family and community concerns.
- On Sunday afternoon, Stop the Hate UK and Jewish organisations will march in London, urging the Prime Minister to prioritize the release of 50 remaining Israeli hostages before recognizing a Palestinian state.
- Amid his pledge to recognise a Palestinian state, Sir Keir Starmer said Israel must implement a ceasefire and increase humanitarian aid, while Steve Brisley warned recognition worsens families’ emotional torture.
- Some protesters held pictures of Evyatar David, the 24-year-old shown looking weak in a Hamas video released earlier this month.
- Concluding at Downing Street, a Campaign Against Antisemitism spokesperson said the hostages’ situation was `absolutely desperate` and urged diplomatic pressure for their return.
- Downing Street said recognition could be halted if Israel allows more aid into Gaza, stops West Bank settlement expansion, and commits to a two-month peace process, amid tensions after 22 arrests at a pro-Palestinian protest.
